Of course, the government is claiming that "science has evolved" over the past 
40 years (and, thus, presumably science questions from the 1980s, 1970s, and 
1960s are unfamiliar to students today). Perhaps, but I would be interested to 
see just how "alien" question from past tests are, or whether that "other" 
hypothesis may have some life in it yet.

Here's the Guardian article about it:
